@ 2007/01/22Up for review today is FOXCONN’s premium Intel motherboard, the 975X7AB-8EKRS2H. Despite the mouthful of a name, for those few users that are able to get around and decode the name it does contain a good deal of information regarding the motherboard it represents.
While I’ll get into details regarding its name later, I should first point out that the Foxconn 975X7AB-8EKRS2H is fully Core 2 Duo ready. Foxconn has a previous product titled, you guessed it, 975X7AA-8EKRS2H, that is not compatible with Core 2 Duo processors, so hence the “B” in the “975X7AB”. To recap, the board we have in this review is the “AB” product refresh/update with the needed changes having been made to the voltage regulator and BIOS.
